[ssppiikkeeyy]

[Sephrick]

I miss my Corsair almost as much as my wyvern Khocha.

When they do add Musketeer, I sincerery hope Corsair is the job even if in name and armor only.

Just tossing these out:

Class: Gunblade
Role: multi-role
Strengths: multi-range combat class, multi-hit melee ws, decent magic skill, highly accurate
Weaknesses: cannot wear heavy armor
Job: Red Mage

Class: Mercenary (Greatsword)
Role: DD
Strengths: specialized in breaking enemy defenses, quick combos, can function as a parry tank
Weaknesses: less dmg than mrd, tanking skills are not as high as gld
Job 1: Samurai (gains ability to use exclusive Great katanas, can easily chain combos)
Job 2: Dark Knight

[Coglin]

No offence OP, but alot of your weapons/class name/class concepts dont seem to sync to me.

Hmmm gunsword/lance would be nifty. Wonder how SE would go about "stealing" them from garlemald Would be cool if they played different than normal sword and lance

@Volsung, I think you are adding way too many jobs for one class, while the way I think it should be is one job combines 2 or 3 classes (ala FF Tactics).

Granted the amount of jobs you have is amazing (few are redundant though), but given the system that SE created, they can easily do this many jobs. The hard part would be the armor and quests for them

I still am stumped as to how a job like the RDM will work out when Yoshi said it'll come (for example) from leveling THM and CNJ... Does it mean I can be a RDM from a CNJ or THM base? meaning with either WHM or BLM tendencies? or I can combine both? meaning it'll give me few abilities from both and lock few (that's the way I think they'll go for)

In that case I see great possibilities in that regard.
GLD + THM > Dark knight.
GLD + ARC > Thief
Arcanist + THM > Summoner
to name a few and you
